The Atlanta Braves will play two Sunday as they wrap up a three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks with a doubleheader. Brian Snitker will roll out his regular lineup in the first game minus catcher Travis d’Arnaud. Alex Jackson caught Friday’s series opener as Snitker wanted to give d’Arnaud two straight off days to rest after he had started 15 of the team’s first 18 games. Jackson comes into Sunday’s game 1-for-13 at the plate with seven strikeouts.
